Cas9 Protein by Molecular Depot is a recombinant Cas9 protein, a DNA-cutting enzyme derived from a bacterial immune system. Guided by an RNA, it cuts DNA at specific locations, acting as a pair of molecular scissors. It is used in CRISPR genome editing to modify genes in a targeted way, including delivery as a ribonucleoprotein complex with a guide RNA, and in in vitro DNA cleavage assays. Each unit contains 50 µg. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
